Youth Can Make a Difference!
Global Youth Service DayS
April 2011
The
largest celebration of youth and the contributions they make to their
communities.
What
is "Global Youth Service Days"?
Global
Youth Service Day(s) (GYSD)
is an annual global event that Celebrates,
Recognizes, and Mobilizes:
a)
The year-round contributions of young people to build their
communities and their world through voluntary service and
b)
The
contributions made by the community (public, private, and nonprofit
sectors) to empower young people
Our Vision
During
Global
Youth Service Days (also called Global Youth Service Day by some),
millions of young people throughout the world
will highlight and carry out thousands of community improvement
projects. This period will be a way for local, national, and international
organizations to:
•Recognize
the year-round contributions of millions of young people worldwide
•Recruit
a new generation of volunteers
•Promote
young people as resources and not as problems in their communities.
Why Global
Youth Service Days?
Around
the world, millions of young people are making a difference in their
community through programs and infrastructure that promote voluntary
action. The focus of GYSD
is to stimulate greater awareness of and support for the promotion of
positive youth development and youth voluntary action.
Youth volunteering is an effective way to build strong youth and
strong communities.
How is
Global Youth Service Days Organized?
All
schools and youth organizations are encouraged to plan and highlight
youth-led community service projects during Global Youth Service Days.
Organizations may want to highlight existing projects to the
media and surrounding community, or may choose to organize special
projects and events that involve youth with the broader community on
GYSD.
The
Association for Volunteer Services is the designated National Lead
Agency for GYSD Lebanon for the
eleventh year. It has also been appointed as the Regional Lead Agency for
the Middle East and North Africa..
